Example
In this B2B marketing example, we look at how Otis used a dramatic event as a launchpad for their elevator brake system. Read below
In 1854, at the Crystal Palace Exhibition,
P.T. Barnum, a famous showman, stood high up on an elevator platform.
The crowd was drawn in, curious to see what would happen.
The crowd grew bigger and bigger, all watching closely.
Suddenly, someone cut the rope of the elevator Barnum was standing on.
The elevator started to fall.
Everyone screamed.
But then something incredible happened.
A safety brake stopped the elevator from falling almost immediately.
The crowd was relieved.
P.T. Barnum calmly told everyone,
"All safe, gentlemen, all safe."
This exciting show sparked the sale of 27 elevators.
And the beginning of the biggest elevator wholesaler we know today.
Otis.
Over the next generation, sky-scraping buildings with elevators began to rise all over the world.
They now move 2 billion people a day and maintain 2.2 million customer units worldwide.
